1-Min Peanut butter chocolate chip cookies
Single or small serving recipes are great for individuals living alone or those who are the only ones living low carb/keto in the family. They are also great for portion control or to satisfy any last-minute cravings without worrying about leftovers. These peanut butter chocolate chip cookies are soft and a bit chewy due to the peanut butter. The chocolate chunks melted nicely so you get a nutty and gooey chocolate cookie which taste yummy. You can also freeze the cookies for 30 minutes or more to get a firmer texture.
1. In a small bowl, add all the dry ingredients and mix well.
2. Add all the wet ingredients and mix until a dough is formed. Please note that the amount of oil can defer depending on the type of peanut butter you use. When I first tried it with Skippy (no sugar version), I did not have to add any oil as the dough was easy to shape. But the one I used in the video is a natural peanut butter and the dough turned out to be a bit dry, so I had to add some oil. I suggest that you add the oil according to the texture of the dough, but it should not be more than 15 ml (1 tbsp). Of course, the more oil you add, the dough will spread more during cooking.
3. Divide the dough into 2 equal portions or you can make it into 1 big cookie (of course, the net carb content will be higher). Wet your hands for easier molding. Shape the dough into a round disc, flatten slightly then place on a parchment paper. Then top with a few chocolate chips (optional).
4. Microwave one cookie at a time, for 1 minute with 30-second intervals. They will be very soft once out of the microwave oven but will firm up once completely cooled. You can freeze the cookies for 30 minutes or more to get a firmer texture.
5. If you wish to use the traditional oven, just bake them at 350F or 180C for about 15 to 20 minutes or until browned.
